Morningstar Rating™ - For each investment with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating™ based on how an investment ranks on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure against other investments in the category. This measure takes into account variations in an investment's monthly performance after adjusting for sales loads (except for load-waived A shares), redemption fees, and the risk-free rate, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of investments in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for an investment is derived from a weighted average of the ratings for the three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) time periods.

For all funds associated to a Target Date: Generally, target retirement date (lifecycle) investment options are designed to be held beyond the presumed retirement date to offer a continuing investment option for the investor in retirement. The year in the investment option name refers to the approximate year an investor in the option would plan to retire and likely would stop making new contributions to the investment option. However, investors may choose a date other than their presumed retirement date to be more conservative or aggressive depending on their own risk tolerance. Target retirement date (lifecycle) investment options are designed for participants who plan to withdraw the value of their accounts gradually after retirement. Each of these options follows its own asset allocation path ("glide path") to progressively reduce its equity exposure and become more conservative over time. Options may not reach their most conservative allocation until after their target date. Others may reach their most conservative allocation in their target date year. Investors should consider their own personal risk tolerance, circumstances and financial situation. These options should not be selected solely on a single factor such as age or retirement date. Please consult the prospectus (if applicable) pertaining to the options to determine if their glide path is consistent with your long-term financial plan. Target retirement date investment options' stated asset allocation may be subject to change. Investments in these options are not guaranteed and you may experience losses, including losses near, at, or after the target date. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the options will provide adequate income at and through retirement.
1Performance shown is for Class I shares, except for MassMutual US Government Money Market fund which shows Class R5 share performance. Max Sales charge for the I shares is 0%. Performance data given represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than return data quoted herein. For more current information, including month-end performance, please call 1-866-444-2601. The investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate; so an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Investment portfolio statistics change over time. Returns shown do not reflect the impact of plan fees, which will reduce performance. Investment portfolio statistics change over time. You cannot invest directly in an index. Pre-Inception Returns - The inception date listed is that of the oldest share class of the Fund. Performance shown subsequent to the inception date is the actual performance of the share class. Other share classes of the investment itself (depending upon the investment) may have existed longer, which may account for any pre-inception performance shown. If preinception performance is shown, it is generally the performance of an older share class of the investment itself (depending upon the investment) adjusted for fees and expenses of the newer share class. However, if using the expenses of the newer share class rather than the expenses of the older share class (due to lower expenses of the newer share class) would result in better performance, then pre-inception performance represents that of the older share class without any expense adjustment. When pre-inception performance is shown, the Morningstar Rating is based on the oldest surviving share class of the fund and is represented by hollow stars. Performance Returns - reflect performance of the investment without adjusting for sales charges or the effects of taxation, but is adjusted to reflect all actual ongoing investment expenses and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains (if applicable). If adjusted, sales charges would reduce the performance quoted. In addition, due to market volatility, performance may vary greatly over short periods of time. The investment's performance is generally compared with that of an index. The index is an unmanaged portfolio of specified securities and does not reflect any initial or ongoing expenses nor can it be invested in directly. An investment's portfolio may differ significantly from the securities in the index. The Index may not be the same as the comparative index noted in the investment's prospectus (if applicable).
2Risk statistics are calculated over a five year period, computed monthly. Risk Statistics-Information Ratio measures the performance of an investment compared to a benchmark index, after adjusting for its additional risk. Alpha is a measure of the difference between a fund's actual returns and its expected performance, given its level of risk as measured by beta. A positive alpha figure indicates the fund has performed better than its beta would predict. In contrast, a negative alpha indicates the fund's underperformance, given the expectations established by the fund's beta. Beta is a measure of sensitivity to market movements. The beta of the market is 1.00. A beta of 1.10 shows that the fund's excess return is expected to be 10% better than the market's excess return in an up market or 10% worse in a down market. A beta of .85 indicates that the fund's excess return is expected to perform 15% less than the market's excess return during up markets and 15% greater during down markets. Standard Deviation is a statistical measurement, which for a mutual fund depicts how widely the returns varied over a certain period of time. When a fund has a high standard deviation, performance is wide, implying greater volatility. R-squared (R2) measures the degree of relationship between the performance of the fund and that of the index. The higher the R-squared, the more related the fund's performance is to its index. Tracking Error is also known as active risk and is the degree to which the strategy differed from its index or benchmark. The higher the Tracking Error, the more the fund deviated from its index. Sharpe Ratio measures risk adjusted performance; it is calculated as the real total return of the fund (total return-risk free rate) divided by the risk of the fund (standard deviation). Upside/downside capture shows whether a given fund has outperformed--gained more or lost less than--a broad market benchmark during periods of market strength and weakness, and if so, by how much. An upside capture ratio over 100 indicates a fund has generally outperformed the benchmark during periods of positive returns for the benchmark. A downside capture ratio of less than 100 indicates that a fund has lost less than its benchmark in periods when the benchmark has been in the red. Batting Average is a measure of a manager's ability to consistently beat its benchmark over the trailing five-year period. Investors should consider an investment option's objectives, risks, fees, and expenses carefully before investing.

Please read them carefully before investing.
3When the Fund class shown does not have a 1, 3-, 5-, or 10-year performance history, the Morningstar Rating shown for periods beyond the Fund's inception date are extended ratings. Morningstar provides adjusted historical returns and an Extended Performance Rating for some mutual funds in its universe. This means that any share class that doesn't have a 1, 3-, 5-, or 10-year performance history may receive a hypothetical Morningstar Rating based on the oldest surviving share class of the fund. First, Morningstar computes the funds' new return stream by appending an adjusted return history of the oldest share class. Next, the Extended Performance Rating is determined by comparing the adjusted-historical returns to the current open-end mutual fund universe to identify placement in the bell curve used to assign the Morningstar Rating. ©2015-2024 Morningstar, Inc.
